Cool

Hi all,
Just fitted my newly designed bonnet, and updated the grille and lights. How do you like it?
Unfortunatley these bonnets will not be available in carbon, just GRP. They are approx the same weight as an alloy bonnet. I will weigh one tomorrow.





Cheers, Rob.

also... not being fussy.. just paranoid before I replace my non existent one with this.. can you try and sort the gaps out better the bonnet is either two long or isnt alligned correctly.. see drivers indicator.. it should be flush.. also gap looks too wide on drivers side.. can I see a pic of both gaps and lights to set my mind at rest so I can order one

Looking good, keep up the good work.

Cheers for the comments guys,
James, I will drop you an email next time Im coming down mate

David, there is some adjustment possible in the positioning of the bonnet, once Ive sprayed it again and lined it up properly Ill get some more pics. Thety do look a bit deceptive though, as I had to round the corners of the bonnet a little so they wouldnt be so brittal, and this gives the impression that it is actualy further back than it is.
Prices, : GRP MY97-00 Aero Bonnet £400.00 primed only. £495.00(*£510.00 metallics) colour coded.

Cheers.
